STOWABLE CARGO COVER

A cargo cover assembly selectively covers a cargo compartment formed behind the rear seat and between spaced interior sidewalls vehicle. The cover assembly includes a housing pivotally connected to a rear seat and movable between storage and deployed positions. A cover, and preferably first and second cover portions, extend(s) in a lateral direction from the housing toward at least one of the interior sidewalls of the vehicle to a deployed position(s). Retaining members are formed in the sidewalls for securing the cover portions in the deployed positions. First and second rails may also be pivotally secured to the housing to receive perimeter portions of the respective cover portions and thereby add additional support and improving the aesthetics of the cover assembly.
